You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Multiple Business accounts with the same email+2 Business accounts on the desktop.
I need multiple drop box teams for different customers. It is not practical for everyone to create multiple e-mail addresses for each dropbox. Is there a solution for one person to be on different te...
I own more than one company. Can I open multiple dropbox business accounts (yes, obviously) & can i be logged into all of these additional accounts on my iphone app all at the same time? How about on my PC in file explorer (Dropbox - Company 1, Dropbox - Company 2, Dropbox - Company 3) & having all my different companies always be syncing at the same time?

Hey there RyanT - how are you today?
As this is not possible at the moment I wanted to say thanks for sending along your feedback Ryan. I’ll be sure to pass your comments along to the team for their future consideration and as a feature request for an option to be able to sync 3 different accounts on your devices.
As you probably know, it is possible to have two separate accounts--your personal and work Dropbox accounts--on the same computer (and mobile devices) yet there's no such option for 3 accounts.
Note that if you need access to two (or more) different Dropbox accounts on the same computer the best option would be to create a second user account within your operating system for the second Dropbox account. However, you would need to log out of one user account and log in to the other account to switch Dropbox accounts. This may or may not be convenient for your needs.
Alternatively, you could link only one Dropbox account to your computer and access any others via the web interface only at: www.dropbox.com
I understand this is not optimal, yet, I hope this information helps to some extent. Please let me know if you have any more questions, feedback or suggestions and I will be happy to assist Ryan.
Thanks!
Can I have 2 dropbox business accounts on 1 computer? Or does it have to be 1 dropbox business account and 1 dropbox personal account?

You're on the right track Rebecca - this is only possible for one individual account (be it on the Basic, Plus or Professional plan) and a Business one that's part of an account on a Dropbox for Business teams plan.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
- Please create a feature where one can sync multiple business accounts. Just as you did with the personal/ business accoint combination. Please add possibility to add more than just one business account. Many people nowadays work for different companies and need to access different dropbox business accounts.
